We bought this for our 40ft fifth wheel camper with 2 air conditioning units and it powers everything. Overall the generator is very quiet. Our 50 amp cord plugs right into the front of the generator. Also love the easy transport handle to extends out from the front.

I just bought this generator and, so far, I am pleased with what I have found. I'm running it,
on gas, right now to break it in.
Good
1.Packing was excellent.
2.Initial start-up was easy and everything worked perfect.
3.Very quiet compared to others I have owned.
4.ECO mode works nicely (rpm varies up and down with load).

I have not tried it with other fuels yet but hook-up looks simple.
Not so good
1.Manual has info in it obviously for other Models and is missing some info for this
unit. It can be confusing.
2.Reattaching the bottom latch on the air filter is tough unless you have little hands.

In spite of these little issues I think the generator deserves 5stars. It is very nice in
what I consider the important ways.

Just unboxed this. So glad I'll be prepared in future outages. The natural gas capabilities were crucial.

So far I am largely impressed, but things to note
on September 3, 2025

I bought this generator after deliberating long and hard. It was a tough purchase because it is a lot of money for something just used in the event of a hurricane. That said, so far I am pretty impressed, but there are a couple of items that should be brought up.
The generator is built quite nice. It is definitely VERY heavy, but I feel like there was some thought and effort on the product. I like the covers on each side and how they latch. I really like how the oil drain was connected to a hose, as well as the carb gas drain (the gas drain was particularly nice). I really like all of the information provided on the panel, including the fuel level which is really nice.
Some of the things that were disappointing considering the positives:
1. There is an oil filter on this unit. It is in the exact same place as the DFc model however there is some sort of big cylinder directly in the way in front of it. I am not sure what this is, but the DFc doesn't seem to have it from the videos I have seen, so I assume it has to do with the Natural Gas part of the unit. It is a little bit of a pain to remove as it requires a 10mm wrench and has limited movement. On such a well thought out generator, this seems to be a rushed item and makes the access to the filter a bit inconvenient.
2. This generator wasn't cheap but came with quite a bit of stuff. The one thing that it didn't come with that I was disappointed about was a cover. This was a HUGE miss. I plan on storing this in my garage and I am going to have to buy my own cover now.
3. It would be nice if the dipstick was magnetic to help keep the engine oil as clean as possible
4. The eco mode barely changes the idle speed at all (it may not even change it at all). I don't know what this switch does at this point as I expected a serious reduction in RPMs to help save gas (I was testing this with no load at all).

It seems to be a very good generator. I just finished my 5 hour break-in period and changed the oil. Despite the disappointments above, I am hoping that overall it will prove itself to be a great unit.
